is that what you mean in essence?
Point number 2:
In terms of music the same can be had for people that like certain genres... People tend to try and find bands like the mainstream ones they like that are not well known in attempt to look as if they are deeper into the music scene...
did i confuse people? does anybody agree with me?

Makes complete sense to me.
I've been getting into stouts a lot lately myself, and trying to find all kinds of good ones, and have been able to try several new ones, and found some that I really like. While I like these full bodies, full flavored beers, Miller Lite will work for me also. There's a time and place for each beer (and cigar). For example, I don't think you'd be smoking a Cohiba Sublime or something rare while moving the lawn or raking the leaves in the fall.
But ultimately...to each his own. Drink and smoke what you like.
